Nordés Atlantic Galician Gin is a rather intriguing Spanish gin made with an Albariño-grape-based spirit, rather than your more commonly seen grain-based spirit, along with 11 botanicals, including 6 local ones from Galicia such as eucalyptus, lemon verbena and samphire, which gives the gin a complex maritime quality. The result is a bold flavour profile that would befit summer drinks and cocktails. The bottle is quite stylish too - very impressive stuff!
VOL 70cl
ABV 40%
Nose: Lemongrass and lavender, shortly joined by a slight hint of waxy lemon peel.

Finish: Juniper makes itself heard on the finish, but for just a moment.
